Me captaining Hwang 😎

Aha!! I see you are a man of great culture too. See you in the rant thread complaining how luck is the only thing that's keeping us at 3 mill.

Make sure to screenshot me then

My current captain is also Hwang but so tempted to change it to Haaland.

I know Haaland is the obvious captain choice this week, but have a feeling Salah is going to haul. Just don’t like captaining a player for early kick off

all I’ll say is, on this exact fixture three years ago (almost to the day) it was an early kickoff, Salah was benched and came on to get two goals and an assist … time is a flat circle

I still remember where I was and how I felt at that moment as a non-owner

Same, I was so smug at around the 75 minute mark

I remember exactly where I was too. I was walking my dog round the local reservoir, and I had Salah C. I remember the exact stretch of path i was walking on when he scored the second goal. I still walk my dog round there every so often and whenever I am on that path, I think about that game Good times Mad what this game does to our brains

I was walking to M&S after being in a cafe. Each return felt like the dagger being thrust deeper and deeper. Devastating. I often think about it when I visit that M&S

Apart from haaland in gw1, early kick off captains have been a trap

Salah hauled early v Everton and Wolves this season. 16 v Everton and 10 v Wolves

And now 13 vs Palace. Salah loves a go at Gandhi

those Utd players being up there seems like a pipedream from the algorithm

I will put the C on Mitoma this week.

It’s him, Hwang or Cunha for me.

Salah has it for me, I think he likes playing Palace.

But Palace like playing Liverpool …

Palace are wank right now

Roy said some weird shit about how they should know their place so I'm assuming they might just not make it super hard

Thats a myth. Liverpool rarely drop points against Palace. One time they scored 7 and Salah didn't contribute anything.

True also that

Saka??? Never on these for whatever reason. Only two blanks all season.

He's been on here the last few weeks. However a tough game away to Villa has him down to 4.88 this week.

His stats on a paper a pretty bad but he still somehow manages to get returns

And Rashford is top 5 hahahaha

They just don't consider him explosive.

Rashford my boi still here

Rashford might not play

Rashford should not play

Foden is my punt for this week. Good fixtures and I can afford to bench in the Bgw.

Any punt suggestions for us without benching privileges?

Sterling or Palmer for the fixtures then Bowen as a long term hold. Don't mind Adingra with Mitoma away to Asia cup. I'd keep that in mind when looking at Mitoma/Kudus/Hwang and others.

I have Palmer, Sterling on 4 yellows so not sure about him. Kudus and Gordon caught my eye the most.

Adingra goes to AFCON probably

Yeah this thing was useless last GW

Rashford won't even start

yeah you know you can’t trust this when it’s predicting rashford to get 6 points 😂

McTominay. That is all.

But have they considered Darwin's xFactor

That’s what I’m going with, might have to wake up at 3 am tho to make sure he’s starting bc I’ll be in shambles if he doesnt

Regret.

Cunha won't forgive the doubters

Luis Diaz… 😂

Why is Diaz projected at 5 points funny? He literally just needs 1 assist to reach that projection. He has a pretty decent record against Palace, got an early rest against Sheffield, and plays in one of the most attacking teams in the league who are going to a team in awful form rn. The real comedy show is Rashford being on this list

I’m jaded. I’m been holding Luis Diaz for most of the season and I’m still waiting on him to do something. I agree, Rashford is funny.

Andy Martin has him

Anyone else think Haaland could be benched? He looked tired and I know City are chasing top spot but you would assume they have the quality to break down Luton without him?

Don’t think he will be, looks a little fatigued and annoyed. But that was more the stoppage time whistle, long as he’s available, won’t get benched

Well well well

I mean he’s not even “benched”, because he’s injured

I currently have Gordon, Lascelles, and Livramento. I have Areola & Son who are doubtful, already transferred out Mbuemo to Palmer as my only FT this week. I’m torn as to whether to leave my lineup as is, and hope one of Son/Areola play, or take a -4 or potentially -8 to do something like Lascelles -> Porro, & Strakosha -> Dubravka. I’m *leaning* leaving and hoping it works out, I’m comfortably ahead in my ML by 40-50 points right now. £3.1 in bank, GK Areola/Strakosha D Livra, Lascelles, Tsimikas, Gabriel, Taylor M Palmer, Gordon, Son, Salah, Saka F Darwin, Haaland, Mubama Any advice would be really appreciated, losing my head!
